Why the model and market differ

Market and model are independent views, not competing answers. Their difference is shown in percentage points (pp) and is a prompt to investigate assumptions or missing information.

D.C. Unitedmodel 19% · market 32% (model vs market 13.0pp)
Drawmodel 22% · market 27% (model vs market 5.2pp)
Nashville SCmodel 59% · market 41% (model vs market +18.2pp)

Market = probability from the designated reference market after bookmaker margin is removed. Model = independent Dixon-Coles-adjusted simulation. The Quick read uses the separately labeled overall estimate, which combines these inputs.

How our estimate compares with available prices

Probability comes first so different price formats remain comparable. Sportsbook odds and prediction-market contracts keep their own labels.

A sportsbook number such as 5.00 is decimal odds, not dollars. Kalshi prices are shown as cent-denominated contracts. “Most favorable collected” means the best usable price in our latest set for the customer, not every venue worldwide. Check the venue before acting; prices, fees, and availability can change.

Questions

Who is most likely to win D.C. United vs Nashville SC?

Clauseground's combined estimate — a Dixon-Coles-adjusted model combined with a no-vig designated reference market — makes Nashville SC the most likely outcome at 45%. That is a probability, not a promise: the other outcomes carry the remaining 55%.

How does Clauseground predict D.C. United vs Nashville SC?

Clauseground uses an independent Poisson model with a Dixon-Coles low-score correction and removes the margin from a complete designated reference market. It shows the model and market views separately, then may calculate a market-specific combined estimate. Each probability retains its source label and timestamp.
